How it Works
Whether you purchase one of our classic tours, or we design a custom tour tailored just for you, with a self-guided tour you’ll have all the freedom of traveling on your own without having spend time researching and arranging your own logistics. Having spent decades living and traveling in the region, we’ve carefully chosen the best trails, hotels, and details to make your holiday as memorable and seamless as possible.
Transfers
We include and arrange all necessary transfers throughout your trip. This includes luggage transfers from one hotel to the next on days when you’ll be hiking or cycling there.
Dates
Since our tours are private and self-guided, they can be arranged for any dates that suit you best. No need to schedule yourself around set dates.
Guides
While the essence of a self-guided tour is that you can travel at your own pace without a guide accompanying you throughout the trip, we can also arrange local guides to enhance your experience in ancient sites. For an extra fee, these guides will meet you at the destination in question, take you through the site, and then depart having imparted a wealth of knowledge without disrupting the freedom and flow of your trip.
Additional Services
n addition to our classic tours, we can add additional services and activities to personalize your trip. For self-drive tours especially, ask us about renting a bike or paddleboard to take along for the ride. We can also arrange sea kayaking, horseback riding, workshops, water sports, diving, and much more, in addition to your hiking, biking, and driving tours.
Hotels
Having visited all the hotels in each area, we consider factors like comfort, location, view, and price to choose the best possible option.
Frequently Asked Questions
A self-guided tour provides holiday makers with the chance to escape the stress of booking hotels and planning a vacation without the need for a group tour or a guide. Think of all the ease of a standard tour, without the obligatory schedule that comes with traveling with a guided group. After prearranging our customers’ transfers and hotel reservations, we prepare a detailed digital tripbook full of historical facts, important phone numbers, and hiking or driving directions, and more to provide you with all the information you’ll need along the way. You will also receive a link to Wikiloc app (free to use for our customers) through which you can follow our GPS coordinates. We provide 24/7 phone support via WhatsApp, Skype or any other phone line. In addition to dropping you off at trailheads when necessary, one of our drivers will pick up your luggage and transfer it to your next hotel during you’re daily hikes or excursions. Since everything has been prearranged for you, and there’s no guide or group you have to keep up with, you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your holiday at your own pace.

The Turkish coast is best visited outside the heat and crowds of July and August and the rains of January and February. While the best times to hike on the coast are March-May and Late September-Early December, our self-drive tours are also great options all through the summer. Cappadocia is best visited May- Mid November.
The best time to hike the Lycian Way is either in Spring (March-May) or Autumn (Late September-Early December). There’s is only a small chance of rain during these two seasons and temperatures are cool enough to warrant an enjoyable hike. The months of January and February are quite rainy, and the summer months can get unbearably hot. The only hiking we can recommend during summer is 1-2 hour hikes in the early morning or evening, no full day hikes.

We provide a link to Wikiloc app through which you can follow GPS coordinates, a detailed e-book outlining your tour program, with lots of pictures and relevant information, hyper-links for google maps locations etc. Participants are responsible for bringing their own hiking equipment such as boots, poles, hat, and backpack.
